Got my Pacific Blue 256GB 12 Pro Max, was scared at first because it gave an error message while checking out with Apple Pay but found out it was because someone already reserved the same time as me with instore pickup. Chose the next available time and went through without any issues. Can finally go back to sleep.
 
Got the Pro Max available for pick up at 8am.

How does in store pick up work for 8am if the mall doesn't open until 11am?
 
Oddly the Apple Store app kept declining my order, used Apple Pay and then it magically went through. 12 Pro Max 256 GB Pacific Blue!!

I had the same problem with the app... it would allow me to add the iPhone mini to the bag, but then would say something got interrupted when actually placing the order.

And then I also had the same resolution: use Apple Pay within the app, and that allowed me to get the order successfully placed.
 
Got my base blue mini within a minute after it became available to order. Held onto a 1st gen SE until I finally caved and got a bigger phone in the 11 pro after my SE went kaput... but I really missed having a lightweight device that allows 1 handed use.

Debated whether or not to upgrade for 128 gb but I'm only using half of the storage on my 64gb pro so...

I didn’t see the option for installment payments with my apple card? Did anyone else have this issue.
 
Preordered HomePod mini and delivery date is 17th, but I could pay extra for delivery on the 16th (which is release day) such a scam. What is the point of pre order? Third party retailer can deliver on launch day for no extra cost. Apple$$$$$$
It will come earlier, I'm almost sure. At least for me it has in the past on preorders.
 
Ordered from the app. iPhone 12 Pro Max Pacific Blue! Express pickup on Friday!! 😊
 
Got mine in on mobile right at 801 eastern. The web page on my desktop didn’t let me in until 10 or so minutes later. I’m sure that will upset some people.
 
#FFS

Store App now works.
Except " Place Order " constantly throws an Error
Spinning circles, " An interruption occurred while placing the order. Please try again ... "

What a load of crap, every other year, when I try to order a new phone, whatever the time point they set the launch at ...
I just kept hitting OK and it eventually went through.
 
Finally got in but then the stupid app wouldn’t let me change the phone number so it was telling me I had to pay off my line first. Went to the website and it was still down but five minutes later finally loaded and was able to select the actual line I wanted to upgrade and the rest went smoothly.
Pickup next Friday. Black Mini 256gb.

Same here. Never used that procedure before. Does it show up in the Walet app after the charge is sent?
 
Demand must not be as strong as other years, 8:36am and all colors still available for launch day delivery. I placed my order at 8:00am on the dot via the App, but I always like for the first few hours checking the store to see how quickly things are slipping. So far no slips yet
